Question

Answer

Why don’t the power-on 

light of the baby unit and 

the parent unit go on 

when I switch on the 

units?

Perhaps the rechargeable battery of the parent unit is empty and the 

parent unit is not connected to the mains. Insert the appliance plug 

into the parent unit and put the adapter in a wall socket. Then move 

the volume wheel in the ‘ON’ direction to switch on the parent unit 

and to establish connection with the baby unit.
Perhaps the baby unit is not connected to the mains and the 

non-rechargeable batteries in the baby unit are empty or there are no 

non-rechargeable batteries in the baby unit at all. Put full non-

rechargeable batteries in the baby unit or connect the baby unit to 

the mains. Then set the on/off switch to ‘ON’ to switch on the baby 

unit and to establish connection with the parent unit.

Why does the LINK light 

on the parent unit flash 

red?

The baby unit and the parent unit are out of range of each other. 

Move the parent unit closer to the baby unit.

The baby unit may be switched off. Switch on the baby unit.

Why does the battery/

power-on light on the 

parent unit flash green?

The rechargeable battery of the parent unit is running low. Recharge 

the battery (see chapter ‘Preparing for use’).

Why does the parent 

unit beep?

If the parent unit beeps while the LINK light lights up red continuously, 

the connection with the baby unit is lost. Move the parent unit closer 

to the baby unit.
The baby unit may be switched off. Switch on the baby unit.

Why does the video 

monitor produce a 

high-pitched noise?

The units may be too close to each other. Make sure the parent unit 

and the baby unit are at least 1 metre/3 feet away from each other.

The volume of the parent unit may be set too high. Decrease the 

volume of the parent unit.

Why don’t I hear a 

sound/Why can’t I hear 

my baby cry?

The volume of the parent unit may be set too low or may be 

switched off. Turn the volume wheel to a higher volume level.

Perhaps you have switched on the automatic screen activation. If the 

automatic screen activation is activated, the video display only 

switches on when the baby unit picks up a sound. As long as no 

sound is detected, the video display is off to save power.

Why does the parent 

unit react too quickly to 

other sounds?

The baby unit also picks up other sounds than those of your 

baby. Move the baby unit closer to the baby (but observe the 

minimum distance of 1 metre/3 feet).
